t Devil Diver Will Fill Engagement in Dixie JAMAICA. L. I., N. Y., April 21.— Trainer John Gaver of the Greentree Stable today stated that Devil Diver would be shipped to Pimlico to fulfill his engagement in the Dixie at that track. The candidate will be turned over to Leigh Cotton, who has a draft of the Greentree Stable "horses in training there. Shut Out, who was on the slow side during the early spring training, was given his first breeze over the Belmont Park strip on Thursday and was timed* in 1:15-5. Shut Out will not be rushed in his training, but will be reserved for the Belmont Park fixtures, such as the Metropolitan and Suburban. The present plans for the Derby candidate Stir Up are that, should he come out of his Wood engagement in good condition, he will be shipped, in company with other Greentree horses, to Louisville early next week.
